[GAP] New Edition of Ada Plus Data Structures

[Riehle, Richard USA]

John,

One of the great examples in Mike Feldman's old book was
the sparse matrix.

I use that as an exercise in my own classes, including
my C++ class to have the students design and code an
object-oriented spreadsheet program.

Subject: [GAP] New Edition of Ada Plus Data Structures

I am happy to announce that my publisher, Jones and Bartlett, still 
considers the Ada textbook market profitable.  This summer I will be 
working on the 2nd edition of my CS2 textbook "Ada Plus Data 
Structures".  The first edition was published by DC Heath just at the
time 
that they were sold to Jones and Bartlett.

While mention was made of Ada 9X, all of the example code in the 1st 
edition is Ada 83.  So I have a lot of work to do to bring this text up
to 
date.  With the manuscript due at the end of the summer, I'm on a tight 
schedule.  So now is the time for those of you who have used this book
(or 
rejected its use) to let me know what changes/additions you would like
to 
see in the second edition.

John
